“Talk no more so very proudly; Let no arrogance come from your mouth, For the Lord is the God of knowledge; And by Him actions are weighed.

The fear of the Lord is to hate evil; Pride and arrogance and the evil way And the perverse mouth I hate.

All the people will know— Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria— Who say in pride and arrogance of heart:

“I will punish the world for its evil, And the wicked for their iniquity; I will halt the arrogance of the proud, And will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

“We have heard the pride of Moab (He is exceedingly proud), Of his loftiness and arrogance and pride, And of the haughtiness of his heart.”

But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.
